ORNETTE!: A TRIBUTE TO ORNETTE COLEMAN — ① Films (2:30pm matinée)
Two acclaimed documentaries, curated by Peter Esmonde, filmmaker of TRIMPIN: the sound of invention:
— Ornette: Made In America (dir. Shirley Clark)
— Moffett, David, And Ornette (dir. Dick Fontaine)
These incisive documentaries show this unique innovator in a wide variety of performances, situations, and moods.
Shirley Clarke's 1985 Ornette: Made in America includes footage of Ornette Coleman performing in New York, Fort Worth, & Morocco, and includes interviews with Don Cherry, Charlie Haden, Dewey Redman, Yoko Ono (小野洋子), William S. Burroughs, and many others.
Dick Fontaine’s 1966 short Moffett, David, and Ornette shows Charles Moffett, David Izenzon, & Ornette Coleman working through a frustrating recording session in Paris.
